You’ve been my superstar
But it’s not what you are
You’ve been my superhero
Since I’ve lived in your shade
Every step that I made
Brought me nothing but zero
But I’m stayin’ alive
Now I’m changin’ my life
With a burning desire
No one knows who I am
But I don’t give a damn
Gonna set you on fire
Shady Lady I’m gonna strike like thunder
Are you ready I wanna make you wonder
Rollin’ steady I’m gonna make you shiver
My heart is …
